Merry Steem-mass, fellow steemers! After a week of running around catching up with stuff around the house I'd ignored to study for tests, I'm back for Hive account@terrycraft's Steemit Poetry Contest #9. Being the last this year, it's about the holidays (Christmas/New Year).

I decided the best way to go about it was to simply put my feelings on paper. Something short and concise. I've never been a big fan of Christmas (probably since I stopped receiving presents as a kid, heh), and with things in my country as they are...

Well, I'll leave interpreting to you guys. I give you:

Afterword

Life is inspiration, and my life is full of intense emotions to fuel my creative spark. Regrettably, a lot of those are negative and stem from the disaster that surrounds me. The only thing left to do is work and try to make the most of it all.

I'd like to take the chance to welcome my friend Hive account@andresfer0310 to steemit, as well as Hive account@edenci, who just recently found his muse and started killing it (he also made the avatar to the right. Check him out!).

Steem on!
